Comment 7 Hongqing Yang 2012-02-10 08:58:39 UTC
file this as F17Alpha Block according F17 Alpha release criteria article
"14.In most cases (see Blocker_Bug_FAQ), a system installed according to any of the above criteria (or the appropriate Beta or Final criteria, when applying this criterion to those releases) must boot to the 'firstboot' utility on the first boot after installation, without unintended user intervention, unless the user explicitly chooses to boot in non-graphical mode. This includes correctly accessing any encrypted partitions when the correct passphrase is supplied. The firstboot utility must be able to create a working user account "

Comment 8 Martin Gracik 2012-02-10 09:40:10 UTC
There is no firstboot-text in rawhide. I believe this has nothing to do with the firstboot application.

Comment 9 Adam Williamson 2012-02-10 17:56:29 UTC
Yeah, there's no firstboot-text app or service in F17 so far as I can tell, so I don't think this is a firstboot issue.

Hongqing, can you check if the problem here is some service hanging, or if it's simply X failing to start up? (Check /var/log/Xorg.0.log). Was this a DVD or network install? What version of libpciaccess is installed? Thanks!

Discussed at 2012-02-10 blocker review meeting. Agreed we need more information (see above) to make a blocker determination for this bug. Will revisit next week.

Comment 10 Tim Flink 2012-02-12 19:36:16 UTC
OK, I think I know why this was filed against firstboot-text.

A similar issue was brought up in the firstboot-text bug that we hit in F16 (bz#737118) but as stated in bug 737118 comment 32, it is not an issue with firstboot and a different bug needs to be filed against alsa or pulseaudio.

Hongqing, can you give more details on the affects of this bug? Is it preventing you from logging into the installed system? What else is going on besides the log messages on the console @ login time?

Comment 11 Hongqing Yang 2012-02-13 03:26:59 UTC
With F17 Alpha TC2
Before reboot, I got the error on terminal window 2 "Oh no. Something has gone wrong." and the message at terminal window 1 ""hda_intel:azx_get_response timeout, switching to simgle_cmd mode". After reboot, I still hit the information at terminal window 1, but I could login now. There is VESA error in the Xlog.0.log.

sorry. I think I have mixed it with other guest. I have installed several guests,
there is no ERR in X log.

Comment 15 Hongqing Yang 2012-02-16 06:39:22 UTC
This is fixed with F17 Alpha RC2

Comment 16 Adam Williamson 2012-02-17 17:27:27 UTC
Discussed at 2012-02-17 blocker review meeting. As it's reported to be fixed in RC2, we will just close this instead.
